Hey, y’all! Thanks for stopping by today to check out my thoughts on Shake, a creative marketplace where creators like myself (and I bet you, too!) can sell digital creative services conveniently and securely.

As a competitive athlete, mom of three boys and self-employed boss babe of 15 years who works in the writing, fitness and clean-eating niche, I live by this motto –   “The dream is free, but the hustle is sold separately.” I do truly believe I can accomplish whatever goals my can mind conjures up. That is, if I’m willing to put in the hard work – the hours of sweating for my sport, the writing and editing, the recipe testing and tweaking (maybe even twerking, lol), and networking to find people who want to hire me!

 With the new platform Shake, I’m better able to potentially increase my income and work from home by connecting with brands for sponsored gigs (like blogs posts, Instagram posts and reels, virtual appearances, and more). You can see below how I’m starting a new Shake for Virtual Cooking Demos.  

This creative marketplace is not just for bloggers or Instagram, Youtube and Tic-tok influencers, Shake can also help photographers, videographers, writers, musicians and other creative types making digital products transact with business who are looking for talent! At my recommendation, my 21-year-old son is going to begin marketing his digital gaming art here – I’m excited for him!    

Using Shake is free for the Creator to initiate, there are no monthly fees are anything. However, there is a 15% marketplace fee on the final deal amount – which is actually much more equitable than some similar competitors out there “helping” creators. The good news is that you don’t pay anything upfront. In my opinions, it’s a total win-win for Creators . . . and those marketplace fees are a LEGIT business expenses, so keep your digital invoices.

I’m so excited to share this Shake review with you, I hope you are inspired. Start dreaming and hustling and Click here to join Shake.
